schuster80 - > Retail Rumblings -> Valley Plaza to open at 1 a.m. day after Thanksgiving
Valley Plaza to open at 1 a.m. day after Thanksgiving
For the second year in a row Valley Plaza will open early the day after Thanksgiving this year (Nov. 24).  After opening at 2 a.m. the day after Thanksgiving last year, the mall plans to open at 1 a.m. this year.  Some even camped outside overnight in the parking lot waiting for the doors to open while watching big screen TVs, listening to music and getting free food and coffee samples.
What do you think?  Is 1 a.m. too early to shop?  Would you get up that early to shop or stay up overnight waiting to shop that early?  What possesses people to do this?  Is it about getting better deals (deeper discounts for those who show up before normal business hours) or just the novelty?

I went last year and I think I left without buying anything. The lines were too long and the sales not good enough to stand in them.
